Confirming Faith in Jesus
Anne Louise was sprinkled with baptism waters as a baby, almost 12 years later she stepped into the water of her own freewill and made a profession of faith in front of her family and friends. Our church offers all sixth graders a course in what we believe about God, called “confirmation” and she took this opportunity very seriously. She took responsibility for all the homework, kept notes and a prayer journal, and made a decision for herself to go into the water.
We’re pretty proud.

She was asked to give a testimony at the banquet before the service. It was a very special day.

O Robin!
What an awesome God we serve. That just brought tears to my eyes. That is our ultimate goal as parents, so see our children love and serve our mighty God!
So sorry I couldn’t get together on our short trip home. Five days was NOT long enough to be there.
Love you bunches!
